Lack of it is one of the biggest cause of anorexia and its associated secondary issues in the small herbivores, a cause of increased stress and anaesthetic problems in the birds and imo is just plain overlooked in the herps. The more the analgesia the better as far as im concerned.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks. <img src="https://www.vetsurgeon.org/emoticons/v2/Happy_smiley.png" alt="Happy" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/43831?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 26 Aug 2011 20:10:08 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:891e1d49-33b4-4858-84d8-f4a6f928fe0cMark Hedberg<p>Mind if I forward it to my colleagues? :)</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/43829?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 26 Aug 2011 19:59:23 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:1b45cb84-255e-4adb-87c9-2f8d8abe1913Mark Rowland<p>Get it Laminated and put it on the wall <img src="https://www.vetsurgeon.org/emoticons/v2/Winking_smiley.gif" alt="Wink" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/43812?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 26 Aug 2011 17:05:37 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:ebfae58f-7fb4-4681-8b52-89d068ea8478Joyce Whitehead<p>Thank you, very useful addition to the exotic formulary, and much quicker to look up!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img src="https://www.vetsurgeon.org/emoticons/v2/Happy_smiley.png" alt="Happy" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/43777?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 25 Aug 2011 19:05:37 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:3c9a4297-b8f1-4c1a-bc89-0e987fee713dMark Rowland<p>Just one bump for those finishing work <img src="https://www.vetsurgeon.org/emoticons/v2/Happy_smiley.png" alt="Happy" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/43768?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 25 Aug 2011 15:02:39 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:b981f0e4-dbd4-4187-884d-ffc4e47152c5Rach<p>thanks!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/43765?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:37:08 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:6ff9c00f-0d66-43eb-bf31-fa5edc48da8fMark Rowland<p>Hello</p> <p>If its the beak, I can hold most heads out and use rodent dental trimmers and rasps for the job. If it needs a bit of sedation, The website selld DVDs on how to achieve this (I use Alfaxan or Propofol) as well as other things. Always look in the mouth if you can to make sure there are noe caseous plaques indicative of stomatitis</p> <p>Goodluck</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/43753?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 25 Aug 2011 10:34:27 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:b2a44f58-717f-40b3-aa0c-b1639984b69dRach<p>Very useful, thanks.</p> <p>Whilst I&#39;m here could I ask your advice for the best way to trim a tortoise&#39;s beak (I haven&#39;t seen it yet but it has an appointment to &#39;examine mouth&#39; so I am assuming). I imagine he is just going to retract his head as soon as I start to do anything, would you advise sevo to facilitate an examination?&nbsp; Any tips gratefully recieved!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
